Non-Viral CRISPR Knock-In Anti-B7-H3 CAR-T Cells Are Amenable for Treatment of Subtypes of Small Cell Lung Cancer
In this webinar, Scientist Vimal Keerthi discusses his work on identifying CD276 (B7-H3) overexpression in primary human SCLC and developing a non-viral CRISPR-Cas9 knock-in (CKI) based platform against B7-H3 to manufacture CAR T cells for the treatment of SCLC. He demonstrates the feasibility of this CAR T manufacturing platform and how this provides a blueprint for immediate clinical translation, overcoming the bottleneck of viral vector production.

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC), characterized by its aggressive nature, has a poor overall 5-year survival rate (5 - 10%). The immune evasion program in SCLC is mediated by the low expression levels of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules, which are needed for T cell receptor recognition. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells offer a promising strategy for SCLC, with the ability to target cancer cells in a TCR-independent manner. However, access to clinical-grade viral vectors to manufacture CAR T cells remains challenging.
